First sentence: SUMMARY. Providing a community that is committed to standards, diversity, and enhancement of the academic environment is often difficult.
Description: "This book presents an integrated approach toward changing attitudes about lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered (LGBT) students, faculty, and staff on contemporary college campuses. It explores specific classroom techniques for handling homophobia and heterosexism in the classroom. The book tackles a wide variety of subjects, including academic freedom, diversity training, nontraditional families, and religion, each of which plays an integral part in the sense of community found on my college campus.

Addressing Homophobia and Heterosexism on College Campuses provides you with the basic tools to set up sensible programs that have worked for others in the past and can work for you in the future!"--BOOK JACKET.
